On this day, October 2, 2023, we gather to announce the formation of the Encryption Advocates Council (EAC). The EAC is a new coalition of organizations and individuals dedicated to promoting the use of encryption to protect privacy and security.

Encryption is a powerful tool that can be used to safeguard our communications, data, and devices. It is essential for protecting our freedom of expression, our right to privacy, and our economic security.

In recent years, however, we have seen a growing trend of governments and corporations trying to weaken or ban encryption. This is a dangerous trend that threatens our fundamental rights and freedoms.

The EAC is here to fight back against these efforts. We will work to educate the public about the importance of encryption and advocate for policies that protect its use. We will also support organizations and individuals who are working to develop and deploy new encryption technologies.

We believe that encryption is a critical tool for building a more secure and just future. We invite everyone who shares our values to join us in this fight.

The EAC’s goals are to:

  • Promote the use of encryption to protect privacy and security.
  • Educate the public about the importance of encryption.
  • Advocate for policies that protect the use of encryption.
  • Support organizations and individuals who are working to develop and deploy new encryption technologies.

The EAC’s membership is open to:

  • Organizations that are committed to promoting the use of encryption.
  • Individuals who are committed to promoting the use of encryption.

To join the EAC, please send us a mail.

We are excited to begin this new chapter in the fight for encryption. We know that we cannot succeed alone. We need your help. Please join us in building a future where everyone’s privacy and security are protected.
